Quantum Mechanics 2: Uncertainty, Reality & Schrödinger's Cat (Everyone's Guide Series Book 11)

This book is the second stage of our exploration of Quantum Mechanics in the Everyoneâ€™s Guide Series. Readers will benefit from a prior reading of Quantum Mechanics: 1 Particles & Waves.

Here, we explore wave packets, the quantum description of particles. We will see how wave packets lead inexorably to the Uncertainty Principle, a hallmark of Quantum Mechanics. We examine the physical and philosophic implications of uncertainty, and whether or not â€œGod plays with dice.â€

Next, we explore wave interference, the fate of SchrÃ¶dingerâ€™s Cat, and the nature of Reality in the Micro-World.

Finally, we examine the Two-Slit experiment, the most famous demonstration of the startling predictions of Quantum Mechanics. We treat this as a series of thought experiments, and will also review astonishing data from a real, practical test.
